London based Dubliner Rob Corcoran has sailed the high seas of love, heartbreak and excess and lives to tell the tales. Juxtaposed with his catchy melodies are tales of heartache, addiction, regret, refugees in flight...but there's also light, and a whole lot of heart.

Laura Smyth & Ted Kemp take a no-nonsense approach to traditional English folk song, taking their cues from revival singers such as Frankie Armstrong, Peter Bellamy and the Watersons and placing an emphasis on strong vocals, tight harmonies and unfussy arrangements.

"Tom Moore & Archie Churchill-Moss are Two of England's most remarkable young musicians. An inherent understanding of traditional forms played out with an entirely contemporary attitude to soundscape." Martin Green - Lau
